Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

I love riddles. I love taking on the challenge. However, when doing simple basic riddles, sometimes we can be made to feel that we are NOT smarter than a 5th grader. LOL

The other day I was doing some riddles with a 12 and 8 year old. I was pretty impressed how well they did. Turns out their dad does them with them. A great idea, get those problem solving skills going early and hone them as they grow. Otherwise they become like us….not smarter than a 5th grader. 😀

Q 3: Mr. Smith has two children. If the older child is a boy, what are the odds that the other child is also a boy?

Q 4: What travels around the world but stays in one spot?

Q 5: In a one-story pink house, there was a pink person, a pink cat, a pink fish, a pink computer, a pink chair, a pink table, a pink telephone, a pink shower– everything was pink!
What color were the stairs?

Ok, Let’s see how you did….
